Federal Judge Approves Prosecution of Democratic Congresswoman
Story by Jack Davis • 16h
Democratic Rep. LaMonica McIver of New Jersey lost a legal round Thursday in her battle to escape the consequences of whacking away at federal immigration agents during a chaotic May confrontation.
McIver was indicted on three counts that allege she slammed a federal agent with her forearm, “forcibly” grabbed him, and used her forearms to strike another agent, according to Politico.
The charges are the result of a Democratic disturbance in May at the Delaney Hall Detention Facility in Newark, New Jersey, in which Democrats made an unannounced visit on the grounds that it was part of congressional oversight of immigration operations.
McIver claimed she has immunity because she is a member of Congress.
